Dark Spots Suggested Routine

If you’re dealing with dark spots, hyperpigmentation, or post-acne marks, this routine focuses on evening out skin tone and preventing further discoloration.

Morning routine

1. Gentle cleanser

2. Antioxidant serum
   (Consider vitamin C or niacinamide to brighten.)

3. Hydrating essence or toner

4. Brightening treatment
   (Ingredients like tranexamic acid, alpha arbutin, or TXA.)

5. Broad-spectrum sunscreen SPF 50+
   (Absolutely essential daily to prevent spots from darkening.)

Night routine

1. Oil cleanser or balm
   (If wearing SPF or makeup.)

2. Gentle water-based cleanser

3. Exfoliating toner (2 to 3 times per week)
   (Choose AHAs like glycolic acid or mandelic acid.)

4. Targeted dark spot serum
   (Ingredients like retinoids or PDRN.)

5. Hydrating or repairing moisturizer
   (Look for centella or ceramides.)

Pro tips
